2 years old


Last week our little Ben turned 2! Unfortunately, on his actual birthday, he was quite sick with a high fever and ended up going to urgent care with an ear infection. He's on the mend now, and loves the way his medicine tastes :)
He is looking and acting older these days, its hard to believe he is growing up. He is extremely verbal and expressive, which is wonderful! Lately, he seems to know that something is changing. He's more attached to both Steven and I, especially Steven, and cries whenever he leaves either one of us. He keeps saying "take the baby out!" It will be interesting to see how he responds to the new one, I think he will be great. I know it will be a big adjustment for him as he is used to getting all of the attention. I am a little over a week from my due date, and getting excited!
Benjamin loves water and playing with it. If we let him, he would play with the hose, a water bottle, or the sink all day long! He's enjoying the pool more and more each time we go.
He has a great sense of humor and loves being silly. He's learning how to jump (another favorite), although rarely gets much air off the ground :)
He loves to figure things out and discover how things work. He's good at pushing buttons and setting up and running our DVD player.
He brings us so much joy. Its hard to imagine what our lives were like without him. Happy Birthday, my beloved son.
